"Don't worry, I've promised Mr. Mateo that I would leave you alive. So you won't die so easily," the old man said casually.Right now, his hand was only half an arm away from Sebastian's neck.Rosalie was terrified, and she exclaimed, "Sebastian! Dodge!"However, Sebastian did nothing of the sort. Instead, he noted coldly, "That's the Black Eagle Sect's Eagle Talon technique.""Oh? So you know what this is? You have a good eye," the old man said. "It's too bad that you offended Mr. Mateo!"The old man cackled again as he shot his hand at Sebastian with more force.Sebastian shook his head slightly as he sneered, "It's just an Eagle Talon. It will never be a Dragon Claw!"After that, Sebastian's fingers curved like claws, and he swung his hand right at the old man. Wisps of golden energy swirled around his fingers, and he grabbed the old man's hand. There was the distinct sound of a dragon's roar as he did so.The old man was shocked as he stared shakily at his hand. "Impossib
Sebastian flashed him a smile. "Is that so? Let's see who's the real victim tonight.""Crazy bastard!" the old man roared. "Die!"After that, he stomped a foot before appearing right in front of Sebastian and swinging a fist at him. His fist was as fast as the speed of light, and was headed straight for Sebastian's chest.At such a close distance, unless his opponent was a Grandmaster, it would be practically impossible to dodge his attack.In the Blacksmith's eyes, Sebastian was powerful, but there was no way he was a Grandmaster. After all, Sebastian was still so young! So, he was confident that this one blow would kill Sebastian. Seeing as how Sebastian had not made a move to dodge his blow, the Blacksmith sneered, "Did I scare you stupid, kid? Die!"Right after that, the Blacksmith's fist made contact with something. He thought that he had hit Sebastian, but when he realized what had really happened, he was stupefied.Somehow, Sebastian had casually caught the Blacksmith's
"You bastard! You broke my hand … I'll never forgive you! You'll never get away with this!" Mateo babbled angrily as he clutched his hand.Sebastian peered at Mateo, who was writhing in pain on the ground, in disgust."Mr. Cortez, this is my warning to your family. If you insist on causing trouble for me, I'll make sure that the entirety of the Cortez family is erased from Riverville!" Sebastian warned coldly.With that, he left with Rosalie.Once Sebastian had left, Mateo grabbed his phone and yelled into the receiver, "Send help now! My hand is broken!"Soon, a car rushed over, and Mateo was carried into the car before it sped off.…Sebastian and Rosalie arrived at the hotel. By some stroke of misfortune, the employee at the hotel informed them that there was only one room available.Sebastian frowned."What do we do? There's only one room left! Why don't we share a room tonight?" Rosalie suggested shyly.Sebastian stared hard at Rosalie before he asked, "Did you plan this
Sebastian froze as he stared silently at Rosalie, who was now sprawled over him seductively. He could feel the heat rise in his body.This was probably every single man's dream, right?However, Sebastian quickly returned to his senses and shoved Rosalie aside."It's getting late, Ms. Griffin. Get some rest. I'm going to get some fresh air," he said as he got to his feet.He went out to the balcony and allowed the cool night breeze to cool down his burning body.Surprisingly, Rosalie didn't follow him out and simply lay on the bed, watching him.Sebastian stayed outside until it was late at night. Seeing Rosalie had fallen asleep, he finally let out a sigh of relief and went back into the room.Meanwhile, in the dark, multiple shadows snuck into the hotel. They made their way to Sebastian and Rosalie's floor and tiptoed to their door.Dressed in black disguises, these men blended in with the night. They also wore face masks, concealing most of their faces except for their eyes.
"Fuck! What the fuck are you two doing? Kill him!" The leader roared angrily at his men, and they sprung into motion.The two men swiped their daggers at Sebastian, but he simply laughed. He twisted the leader's arm, breaking it. At the same time, he jumped to his feet and kicked the two men, sending them flying. They crashed into a nearby wall and spat out blood, lying limp on the floor.The leader jolted in fright. With complete disregard for his broken arm, he flung his arm out, sending a cloud of white smoke into the air. It temporarily blinded Sebastian. Taking the opportunity, the leader dashed for the balcony to escape. He didn't expect Rosalie to be there as well.Rosalie froze, and her eyes widened as the man charged toward her with a dagger."Since' I'm going to die, I'm taking you with me!" he howled.Rosalie was rooted to the spot. She could only watch helplessly as the dagger got closer and closer to her chest.Just then, Sebastian had finally regained his vision
Mateo lay on the hospital bed at Riverville Hospital. He glared at his arm, which was now cast in plaster.The doctors had told him that the bones in his hand had been shattered.In other words, one of his hands was disabled."Goddamnit! Fuck!" Mateo howled.A while later, Penelope walked in. She took off her sunglasses and stared coldly at Mateo. "Where is the wild truffle?" she demanded.Mateo sighed before replying, "I didn't manage to get it. The Blacksmith, a martial arts Grandmaster, was killed by Sebastian as well.""He killed a Grandmaster?" Penelope asked in disbelief. "So you're saying that Sebastian shouldn't be underestimated?"Mateo frowned but nodded. "Yeah.""Alright, I understand. I'll handle the rest. Get well soon, Mr. Cortez. I'll send for a genius doctor to cure your injury soon," Penelope said. She put on her sunglasses and left.Mateo waited until she was well out of earshot before he howled in anger again.He couldn't stand it!It was the first time
She never would've expected that she would bump into Sebastian and Rosalie in Riverville.They also looked close, like they were a lovesick couple. Frankly, it made Whitney feel sick.Sebastian frowned when he saw Whitney. He tried to pull his hand away from Rosalie, but she held on tightly to his. As such, he had no other option but to allow her to cling to him.However, to Whitney, it seemed as if Sebastian and Rosalie were closer than ever.She couldn't hold her tongue anymore and asked with a frown, "Why are you here? When did you arrive?""We're here for fun and we arrived yesterday afternoon," Sebastian answered naturally.Whitney's eyes flashed at that.They arrived last afternoon? That meant that he was with Rosalie last night. They must've shared a room too!At that thought, Whitney's expression soured even further, and she huffed. Her gaze became one of utter distaste as she glared at Sebastian.Sebastian hadn't even known Rosalie for that long, yet they were already
Sebastian's expression was calm as he replied, "Yes.""Cocky bastard! Take him away!" the leader, Charlie Sand, ordered coldly.Three of his men immediately stalked toward Sebastian, their gazes menacing. "What do you think you're doing?" Rosalie demanded."Oh? What a beauty! I guess I'm in luck today!" Charlie leered at the sight of her. "Baby, sit quietly if you don't want any trouble. I'll play with you in a while," he purred with a salacious smile.He then motioned to his men and growled, "Get rid of this asshole. Make sure no one disturbs my meal with this beautiful lady.""Yes, sir!" his men shouted and rushed at Sebastian.However, before they could do anything, Whitney rose to her feet and yelled, "What are you doing? Are you really going to attack someone in broad daylight?" Charlie's expression twisted at her words. He turned to yell angrily, "Motherfucker! Do you want to die?"However, when he saw how beautiful Whitney was, his angry expression was immediately r
